132: You and I, brothers, should be like this

Bang!

Yan Junlin kicked Wang Yi in the head, sending him flying, and the pillar behind him was directly broken.

“Ah…”

Wang Yi, with a bloody head, clutched his head in pain, letting out a series of shrill screams.

“…”

The people present showed looks of horror, quickly backing away, especially those from the Law Enforcement Hall, who dared not say a word at this moment, their foreheads covered in cold sweat.

“You ignorant fool, do you think becoming a member of the Law Enforcement Hall makes you superior? Do you think you can disregard the laws of Great Xia?”

Yan Junlin’s tone was cold and sharp. How could his illustrious name be called out so casually by a mere Wang Yi?

He then looked at Situ Hao, a cold glint in his eyes: “Situ Hao, were you causing trouble for Brother Xie just now?”

Situ Hao’s expression changed, and he quickly bowed to Yan Junlin: “Your Royal Highness, this is a misunderstanding! The moment Young Lord Xie took out your token, I knew it was a misunderstanding. How would I dare cause him trouble?”

Yan Junlin’s protectiveness towards Xie Weilou exceeded his expectations.

However, he could also see the underlying reason: Wang Yi’s father was the Minister of Rites, and the Minister of Rites was not part of Yan Junlin’s faction. Naturally, Yan Junlin would not show him any face. This lesson to Wang Yi was perhaps a response to the Minister of Rites.

“Hmph! I wouldn’t expect you to dare, but remember one thing: whether or not Brother Xie is someone I brought, from now on, whenever you see him, treat him with respect. Whoever dares to provoke him, don’t blame This Prince for being impolite.”

Yan Junlin snorted coldly.

Duke Su’s side was neutral and needed to be won over, so it wasn’t good to directly make a move. Otherwise, he would definitely slap Situ Hao across the face.

“Of course.”

Situ Hao quickly nodded. Yan Junlin not attacking him made him breathe a sigh of relief; otherwise, being publicly beaten here would truly make him lose all face.

Xie Weilou not only had Yan Junlin’s token but also Song Shenfeng’s token. From now on, who would dare block his path? Unless they were tired of living.

If Yan Junlin made a move, there was still a glimmer of hope for survival. If Song Shenfeng made a move, it would be the end, turning into ashes.

Yan Junlin looked at Xie Weilou, a smile appearing on his face: “Brother Xie, has the frustration in your heart been dispelled?”

Xie Weilou cupped his fists: “Many thanks, First Prince.”

Yan Junlin smiled and said: “You and I are brothers; it should be this way. If others provoke you, they are provoking me. This Prince naturally won’t let them be presumptuous.”

Xie Weilou asked with a smile: “First Prince, what was the result of your visit to hear the expert’s lecture?”

“I gained some insights and learned a lot.”

Yan Junlin’s smile deepened. This time, his gains were indeed significant. After returning this time, he could prepare for his breakthrough.

Of course, he also had to deal with some small loose ends he had left, otherwise, if Prime Minister Wei, that old fox, targeted him, it would be very troublesome.

Xie Weilou said: “This Saint Academy is too big; I can’t finish exploring it in a short while. I’m a bit tired now, so I plan to go back.”

Yan Junlin quickly said: “Coincidentally, I also need to go back. Let’s go together.”

“Alright, alright, alright.”

Xie Weilou nodded repeatedly.

“Please!”

Yan Junlin smiled and extended his hand.

“Since you stood up for me this time, it’s only right that you go first. It wouldn’t be proper for me to walk ahead.”

Xie Weilou also quickly extended his hand.

“Hahaha! Then I won’t be polite.”

Yan Junlin was in a good mood and walked forward with a laugh.

Xie Weilou smiled faintly and followed him.

“…”

Everyone looked at the retreating figures of Xie Weilou and Yan Junlin, their expressions somewhat grave.

It was true that Xie Weilou was a wastrel, and there was nothing for him to do in the current Zhenxi Marquis Manor, but with Yan Junlin as his backing, who would dare underestimate him?

Moreover, they still had one doubt: why would Song Shenfeng give his token to Xie Weilou?

Su Muxue looked at Xie Weilou, her face filled with a complex expression.

Xie Weilou was good at acting. Yan Junlin certainly didn’t know how terrifying Xie Weilou was yet. Now, calling him “Brother Xie” repeatedly, if he knew Xie Weilou was a fierce tiger, what would he think?

“Oh! What happened to you all?”

After a while, a surprised voice sounded, and Princess Ruyi walked over.

“Greetings, Princess Ruyi.”

Everyone quickly bowed.

Princess Ruyi looked at everyone, her gaze falling on Wang Yi, her expression a little strange. She then asked: “Have you seen Xie Weilou?”

“…”

Upon hearing this, everyone’s hearts tightened.

Situ Hao subconsciously asked: “Princess Ruyi, are you looking for Xie Weilou for something?”

Princess Ruyi said carelessly: “Of course, to take him on a tour of the Saint Academy!”

Everyone’s pupils constricted. It seemed Xie Weilou was not only close to the First Prince but also seemed to have some connection with Yan Ruyi.

In that case, that fellow was even less to be underestimated.

What charm did that wastrel possess?

Situ Hao’s expression was a bit unnatural. He quickly said: “Xie Weilou left with the First Prince.”

“Oh! I was just going to take him around.”

Princess Ruyi said casually, then walked forward.

After a few steps.

She stopped and looked at everyone, saying meaningfully: “Xie Weilou and I have a good relationship. Don’t provoke him, otherwise… I’ll break your legs!”

Everyone’s expressions froze, not daring to say more.

“If only I hadn’t broken off the engagement back then…”

A thought suddenly arose in Su Muxue’s mind, but as soon as it surfaced, she suppressed it.

Tianqi City.

Xie Weilou cupped his fists to Yan Junlin: “First Prince, I haven’t been to the Tianquan Division today, so I must go.”

Yan Junlin smiled and nodded: “Alright, alright, alright!”

As if thinking of something, Yan Junlin then whispered: “Brother Xie, to be honest with you, the former commander of the First Hall of the Tianquan Division died, and now a new commander has arrived in the First Hall. That commander is Yan Ruyu’s person. Although I am close to Yan Ruyu, I am worried she might make a move against you. You need to be wary of that person.”

Xie Weilou said with a serious expression: “Thank you, First Prince, for the reminder.”

“Mm!”

Yan Junlin smiled and waved, then turned and left.

Xie Weilou walked towards the Tianquan Division.

Tianquan Division.

Second Hall.

Lin Qinghuang sat in the hall, intently reading a scroll. A mysterious aura enveloped her, and her cultivation showed faint signs of a breakthrough.

Xie Weilou entered the hall. He glanced at Lin Qinghuang, feeling a little emotional. This woman harbored a great secret, and her cultivation speed was also remarkably fast.

She seemed to have only recently entered the mid-Tuojiang Realm, and now she showed signs of another breakthrough, which was extremely extraordinary.

Lin Qinghuang looked at Xie Weilou. She put down the scroll and mused: “How about accompanying me to a place tonight?”

Xie Weilou stepped forward, sat down beside her, and asked in surprise: “Accompany you to your home? This… isn’t good, is it? Should I go freshen up first?”

Lin Qinghuang glared at Xie Weilou: “To Millstone Town. There’s a cultivator trade fair there, where there are things I need, and perhaps things you can use too.”
